continue to update the 5.1x releases with "bug fixes" as the development of

enhancements for the 6.0 release continues.

To facilitate both bug fixes and enhancements to Ham Radio Deluxe, the
development team is to moving the program source code from the obsolete
Visual C++ 6.0 development environment to current Visual Studio 2010
development environment. This major step enables a more straightforward,
bug-free development process and better program integration using the more
powerful VS 2010 and its support tools for enhancements to HRD."

The 5.x releases of HRD are free. HRD Software LLC does have direct paid
support with phone and email for the 5.1x products for an introductory price
of $59.95. This pricing plan includes version 6.0 at no additional charge.
The introductory price expires upon release of Ham Radio Deluxe 6.0.

The scheduled release of Ham Radio Deluxe 6.0 is May 18, 2012 at the Dayton
Hamvention and on line. The MSRP for Ham Radio Deluxe 6.0 with support will
be $79.95 when it is released.
